1732
THERE is no express'on more sim­ple
and comprehensive than a
~ingle sentence w h i c h John
John! ton once uttered: "George Wash­ington
stands unique and apart, in
monumental solitude, the greatest world
patriot." With these few words we
raise a monument before which we
stand and pay homage, even after two
centuries, to the memory of the man
whom we so proudly point out as the
'"Father of our Country."
Wa.shington was born February 22,
1732, in a town of Virginia. He re­ceived
a fine education and entered his
first bus-ineas venture at the age of
sixteen. Hill. natural in~tinct for leader­ship
soon drew him into l)(Ilitics and
subsequently brought him before the
eyes of the whole world. When in 1775
the colonies entered upon thut bitter
struggle for independence, they turned
in!tinctively to Washington as their
leader. It was indeed a herculean task,
1IlII as4tugtnu
but patriotism and couruge remained
the constant watchtowera from which a
shining light was cast equally upon
success lind defeat. Can you really
imagine his position! Thousands o(
80ldieT$ were without food and cloth­ing;
the country Wall in desperate
straits; yet, he kept heart and patiently
awaited victory. Through the thick
and thin of the fight, through strife and
terror he WIIS ever II f'lIther and equal
to the brave men who followed him.
However, our independence as a
nution is not all that we owe to Wash.
ington. It remained for him also to
luunch that "Ship of State" and estab­lish
for all t:me the dignity and reserve
of II President, that gained the respect
of the whole world. Would that men
would strive to emulate 1111 that he
meant by dtizenship and putriotism
and that they co uld lea"n the virtue of
cairn patience which a Washington
pO:5llessed! How much easier it would
1!132
be for the leaders of the nation's
destiny to cllrry us safely over this
crisis!
It i, udly true that we too often
think of this patriot merely in the light
of a statesman and warrior. Yet, it
WIIS the man and the strength of char­acter
in the man that made him a
$tate$man and general. that gave him
the power to surmount almost insur­mountable
obstacles. The voice of the
child who with disappointment cried,
" He'. only a man," lacked behind it the
intellect to think of the honesty of pur­pose
and unselfishness of spirit that
guided the President whom he had con­ceived
a$ II different man among men.
He Will in reality jU$t II man. He knew
pride and humility and as the yeaMl go
on muny will look upon that lonely
figure kneeling in silent prayer, remem­hering
ulways the sufferings of men
who depended upon his leadeMlhip.

Are College Girb Ambitio ulI ?
We rea1i:r.e that a vast number of boY3 and
girls are being sent to college during the present
years. We readily can see the advantages that a
college education gives to a )'oung man and we
take pride in our college·bred young women,­but
is the college girl necessllrily striving for a
gOlll? After all, thing~ done without aim are
rllt'ely done well.
Prnctielllly every boy from high school age
BeeB some definite lifework ahead of him lind his
college life will be an aid in attaining his aim.
Then again young men realize the pre~tige that a
degree carries with it into any field of work snd
that a college education is practically a neeu$ity
in any profe!lllion. But lIS for the girls at eol~
lege,-we can pick four type~ from them We
exdude the typ·e that is not at al! Buited for college
lind therefore does not stay very loltg-.
Fi rat, there is the girl who take3 her college
wO"k $eriously in so far liS she rCIlIi7.es that she
must elll'lt her own living when she gt'lIdulltes, or
hll5 some other lIim to which her education wi!1
prove II help. Then, there is the girl who has a
hazy idea of the future and because she has not
aB yet been made "to shift for heTllel!," she makes
no drastic endeavon. Nut, is the type that won­den
why she eVer came to college, yet wouldn't
think of leaving. This type of girl has indeed
made a very bad bargain. Thinking on a purely
mereenary basis, that girl would never think of
deliberately spending thirty dol1arll for a dren
when she could buy it for twenty,- but, as for
college tuition i_ We are ogliged to IIgree with
Puek when he said, ;'What fools these mortals
be!" The 1 .. 1 Iype realizes ~he has to work after
she gl'llduates. She does not elldeavor to study
very hard and is conseiouJ of the fact that she
is wasting time. Yet by some unforseen stroke
of Providence she also graduates. The trouble with
this type is thllt the future is too near the present
She is the kind that would just liS soon go to school
all her life because it would be the easie3t thing
to do.
The other day, I happened to come across a
newspaper i!lllued in 1861. called the "True Ameri·
clln," published at Steubenville, Ohio. In it was
a rather odd editorial,-odd, because it gave us
lin idea of a girl's ambitions at the time when our
g-reat-gnHldmothers were contemplllting their
futures. The editorial is entitled, "We Wrong Our
Daughterll." The author starts out by saying, "We
THE GLEANER
wrong them in that we compel them to marry." He
laments the fact that unlike II boy they have no
career!! open before them. fie says, " I cannot aee
why g:rls should be brought up to the idea tha~
marriage is t he 'one thing needful,' the 'summum
bonum,' the 'nothing more beyond.' The remedy
for thi~ wrong lies in giving your daughter ,orne
other aim in life except marriage, so t hat this may
become to her a matter of. will , not of necel!l!ity."
How far we have progressed since 1861! Cer­tainly
we feel sorry for the girls of t hat age, but
since our college education affords us ,ome aim
in life other than marriage, why not profit by it~
Because we are given a college education now,
does not mean that a career is preferred to
marriage but education furthers the suceesa we
may attain in either alternative. After all, which­ever
way we may choose requires some fo re­t
hought.
Christian Gauss wrote an article on the educa­tion
of Sinclair Lewis for "The Saturday Evening
Post," in which he sa id that after his Junior year
at college, Lewis became bored and left Yale to
work, for a year, liS a janitor. Returning to Yale,
he ~ pent a very !Irofitable Senior year.
Perhaps it would be a good idea for the bored
types of girls or those who wonder why they ever
came to college, to leave for a time lind come back
later, appreeisting its value. Unfortunately, this
would be a rather expensive and fa r-fetched
remedy for apurring on lagging ambition.. A more
practical remedy would be for college girls to ex­pend
a little more thought on the future and realize
the importance of the present.

More About Depression
From the recent eonversation of a young
luminary in the financial world, a Hllrvard gradu­ate
and a success both here and on the Street,
we learn that this devil, Depression, is at last on
the run.
That statement has been reiterated so often and
with so little real effect t hat it has ceased to
cause even a ripple of interest on the pool of
stagnant busineu and lethargic spirits.
Heretofore, periodic reports of the rising trend
of busineu and its attendant economic recovery
have been iu ued not only as a sop to a panic.
stricken public, but as a bolster for the persistent
optimism of the men at the helm. They re fused
to acknowledge the reality of t he thing; they
talked to convince t hemselves as well as us, that
t here was nothing to worry about.
When at last their delibe rate blindnesa has led
them to the brink of personal dissllter, they have
deeided that maybe the whole world ... n' l wrong.
An invest!gation disclosed the unbelievable truth
that there wail trouble, serious trouble, and it be­hooved
them, if they would avert even wone mis­fo
rtune, to get busy and effect a cure.
Now that t hey admit its existence and know
what they have to COile with, a plan of re<:on­struction
can be worked out t hat will at least
check the downward trend of things. We won·
dered why this slump had been SO much longer
lived than any other on record; the an ~wer is that
it has been let run its own COUTlle, unbridled, gain.
ing momentum as it went. A car running down
hill acceleratel its Ipeed as it descends, and Just
as one esn't stop a run-away automobile by s tep-­ping
in front of it as it rolls, neither can a
deprell5ion be halted like that. It has to be brought
to a atop graduslly,-and then begins the work
of pushing it back UII the hill again.
And so, though the upward journey hasn't yet
begun, at leaat the brakes have been applied. The
ascent will seem longer a nd harder than the trip
down, but who of us wouldn't prefer to climb a
flight of s tairll than to fall down them?

In a r ecent issue of "The Vil_

in examinations at John-Hopkins
was explained in detail by the
Editor. "In our Bylltem, we do
not have anyone who acts as a
monitor or policeman. when
a man entel"!J a Univenity he
should have enough year. on his
shoulden to be able to discrimin­ate
between what is right and
what is wrong. If a student is
clever enough to copy something
of!' another man's paper without
his actions being detected, he will
feel very probably thllt he hIlS put
one over on the professo,' and the
university. But, if the truth be
known, the only one injured has
been the student who did t he
copying. To be Bure he may feel
that he gained a better mark by
copying and thus he has gained.
However, if he would go rurther,
he would clearly see that he was
forming a habit that would some
day get him into a lleek of trouble
_ namely taking the wot'k of
others and turning it in liS. his
own. The more imllortant thing
is where such a prlletice and men­tal
attitude will lead one in future
years."
The article in COnclU3!On con­tains
a few valuable lIuggestions
pertaining to exams. For instance
if you become wearied from writ.­ing,

the remedy is, take a walk In the

GEORGE WASHINGTON
When I think of George Wash·
ington, all that [ find before me
is the p:cture that was in the
front of our history books in
grammar school. To sum it all
up, George Washington stand, for
a nose and chin.
Noses and chins are my first
points of regard when I meet
people for the first time. Natur­ally'
remember them longest. So
it is with George Washington's
nose and chin. Let us take his
chin first.
Washington's chin is a very de­termined
one. It is the chin of a
gcneral-a fighter, a strategist, a
man who believes in his own
opinions. It curves very strongly,
and is very clear·cut. You could
imagine Washington snapping out
an order. Decidedly and finally
that order would be given, and it
would be carried out in the same
spirit, whether it meant bringing
his horse, or ordering an advance
in the face of great odds. It is
a chin that invite3 trust in the
beholder, becau,e the man it be·
longs to has trust in himself first
of alL The chin belongs also to
a sport sman, a clever winner and
a good lo ser. After all life can
be a game, and the way you play
it is more important than the
score, which no one remembers
long. "The play's the thing"­Washington
could take a good
licking and come up with energy
enough to try anything twice. His
chin is that kind of chin. It sticks
out emphatically, but not pom­pously.
It is ateady, and strong,
and very manful.
Washington's nose is perfectly
suited to his chin. It is long and
set at an angle which makes more
for character than for good looks.
Nevertheless, it is a likeable nose.
It has wide, generous nostrils,
and strong, downward line$----a
good combination, that, strength
and generosity. It is the nose
of an investigative, but not in­quisitive
person. It shows pati­ence,
and dignity. The little
furrows at the bridge of the nose
show thought, and indeed George
Washington had all of these things
within him. He may have had
many other thing3 showing in his
face, but these were most promi.
nently shown in the features
where one would look last for
character. He was a gentleman
and a warrior. That has been the
ideal man, down through the ages
of knighthood.
It remained lor present day
. critics to seize upon little things
and drag them out to show that
idealism was very ghostly st ufT.
The same group of critics tried to
eradicate Galahad from the minds
of people. In days of knight­hood,
one who was unfaithful to
his vows was tried before his
peers, stripped of his armor, and
had the office for the dead sung
over him. So, you see it was a
very cowardly thing to do, to con·
demn a man when he could not
defend himself. Furthermore it
was not the peers who did it, but
ab ec rwohwadt oWf amsheinn gwtohno nweavse; r tchoeurled- I:h ;:e:Hr: ,':~I'~"\;:~'~I'['I:;'~~",'::.~;;·~:"il :·~t:tgaoI Ogtuhineg
fore, they were not able to strip Ameri-him
of his glory, because t hey
were not powerful enough.
Washington will always be a
hero to me, as much as any
knight, and his nose and chin
stand fo r all I would like in him,
whatever, at any time men may
find elsewhere in him .
.-C.. W illiamson. IN DEFENSE OF P ASHT
Carl Van Vechten, in his very
brilliant and painstaking work, "A
Tiger in the House," gives a de­tailed
and interesting account of
the psychological and historical
phases of the cat'a existence in the
world of man. In it we reeogni~
with painful clearness that if all
the indifference, dislike, and avers_
ion shown the cat were computed,
it would amount to a staggering
total. On the, other hand, if all
the devotion and love, shown this
most cryptic, most indifferent, most
enigmatic, and at the aame time
most lovable of beasts, were like·
wise conjectured it would in all

dredfold.
Beginning with the worship of
the cat in Egypt as the goddess
Pasht or Bast, and leading to the
supers titious association of the
cat with witchcraft, history and
mankind has done the eat constant
injustice. To those who cherish
him, he is not the stupid, ineffec·
tual animal of popular opinion, but
the companion of Richelieu, the be·
loved pet of Beaudelaire, the friend
in leisure hours of pooh and
princes.
To me there is nothing so noble
or 80 intelligent as a dog. But why
try to estimate the cat in terms of
the dog's qualities? Some people
say, "I don't like cats, I like dogs."
It is likc saying, "r can't read
Goethe, I like Schiller", or " I never
read Dickens; I prefer Scott."
Since we eat lovers have can·
ceded the point of intelligence, why
not grant the cat the consideration
of his good qualities which he de.
serves? There are, it is true, thou·
sands of dog stories in which Fido
rescues his master from burning
buildings, from runaway railway
trains, or front·line trenches.
There are a few good stories which
show the faithf ulness and devotion
of the cat. G. H. Powell's very
wonderful short story, "The Blue
Dryad," in which a cat battles to
the death a deadly reptile is as
thrilling as any of Mr. Terhune's
canine episodes. Yes, the cat is
faithful, but he demands faith in

In My End Is My Beginning

is not a pa!l8ing glimpse
of the physical distre.'!!! attending
the life of Mary Stuart, a distreu
which was infinitely greater in
terms of mental anguish; it is an
undel'$tanding portrayal of t he
characters most concerned in her
life. An amazing wealth of de·
tail is woven so skillfully into tho
intricate pattern 0{ her life thllt
each character seems essential to
the whole and the result is a
series of sc:ene" so vivid that the
reader lives therein. Some shrink
from reading the four stories for,

much of disappointment and Bor·
row; but the interest is still broad
and human. A tragedy is in the
making. Numberle!18 trying, tell~
ing circumstances develop, but
throughout it aU Mary, the mag­net,
although her charitable mind
Dnd tender heart do not always
correctly intl!l"pret situations,
soothes and attract!!.
Maurice Baring has felt very
strongly the plight of Mary
Stuart. He has undenstood 10
well how unbearable conditions
were for her that he shrinks from
disclosing promisc:uously the ex­periences
of her sensitive mind.
Likewise, it would appear that in
writing this book he has Icorned
much of the dramatic quality of
situations in which Mary was in­volved;
as a crusader might 1IC0rn
the t hrms in exploration which is
undertaken in II great cause, lest
the reader ~ay to himself, " It was
not rea11y as bad as thllt; this is
only a good story."
However, the fact!! and deeds
ot the interesting life ot the
Queen of Scots are threaded to­gether
by the author with a charm
of narrative and a vensatility of
style that bseinate. It i, a rare
tale, weaving into delightful nar·
rative, the spiritual and the high
ideal, the sweet wholesomeness of
tho simple thing8 of life with the
SOt"TOW lind suffering that are
orton the pllrt of great souls.
The book ends with an account
of lIlary', death and burlal which

"Football Is No More Dangerous Than

YARR, COACH OF CENTERS FOR 1932
¥'ortullately we were able to
meet the All_Americall halfback,
Mr. lI1archmont Schwartz, and the
All_American Center, Mr. Thomas

mitted that be was soon to marry

will have taken place, and thus
we take thi~ opportUnity to con­grlltulate
II1r. Yarr, lind to wish
him every success and hllppiness.
When asked about plans fOI' h'l

was very reticent. He sliid he had
no plan for any position in 1932,
other thlln pursuing hi~ studie3 in
the Nolre Dame College of Lnw,
in whicb he is now a Jun:or. But
the announcement has jUlt been
illllued from Notre Dame that
"Marchie" will be the backfield

Characteristically he would make

After learning that each football

that the Ramblers went down to a

a great victory in being able to
face the world with a ~mile, admit
they had lost, praise the:r oppon­enUl,

1732
THERE is no express'on more sim­ple
and comprehensive than a
~ingle sentence w h i c h John
John! ton once uttered: "George Wash­ington
stands unique and apart, in
monumental solitude, the greatest world
patriot." With these few words we
raise a monument before which we
stand and pay homage, even after two
centuries, to the memory of the man
whom we so proudly point out as the
'"Father of our Country."
Wa.shington was born February 22,
1732, in a town of Virginia. He re­ceived
a fine education and entered his
first bus-ineas venture at the age of
sixteen. Hill. natural in~tinct for leader­ship
soon drew him into l)(Ilitics and
subsequently brought him before the
eyes of the whole world. When in 1775
the colonies entered upon thut bitter
struggle for independence, they turned
in!tinctively to Washington as their
leader. It was indeed a herculean task,
1IlII as4tugtnu
but patriotism and couruge remained
the constant watchtowera from which a
shining light was cast equally upon
success lind defeat. Can you really
imagine his position! Thousands o(
80ldieT$ were without food and cloth­ing;
the country Wall in desperate
straits; yet, he kept heart and patiently
awaited victory. Through the thick
and thin of the fight, through strife and
terror he WIIS ever II f'lIther and equal
to the brave men who followed him.
However, our independence as a
nution is not all that we owe to Wash.
ington. It remained for him also to
luunch that "Ship of State" and estab­lish
for all t:me the dignity and reserve
of II President, that gained the respect
of the whole world. Would that men
would strive to emulate 1111 that he
meant by dtizenship and putriotism
and that they co uld lea"n the virtue of
cairn patience which a Washington
pO:5llessed! How much easier it would
1!132
be for the leaders of the nation's
destiny to cllrry us safely over this
crisis!
It i, udly true that we too often
think of this patriot merely in the light
of a statesman and warrior. Yet, it
WIIS the man and the strength of char­acter
in the man that made him a
$tate$man and general. that gave him
the power to surmount almost insur­mountable
obstacles. The voice of the
child who with disappointment cried,
" He'. only a man," lacked behind it the
intellect to think of the honesty of pur­pose
and unselfishness of spirit that
guided the President whom he had con­ceived
a$ II different man among men.
He Will in reality jU$t II man. He knew
pride and humility and as the yeaMl go
on muny will look upon that lonely
figure kneeling in silent prayer, remem­hering
ulways the sufferings of men
who depended upon his leadeMlhip.

After Father Willman's touch­ing
appeal to Ull on January 22,
we were all eager to visit the
Philippines to see and experience
for ourselves some of the horron
and JOYll of the missionary
worker. His talk centered on
whether or not our attitude
towards the missionll is Christ­like.
" Hatred of the white man," he
says, "is prevslent in the missions
today lind sl1 because we have not
t he proper attitude towards them,
but are inclined to think we are
somewhnt better t han the red man
01' the brown; beesuse he is differ­ent,
we judge him in ferior. Christ
docs not look at the color of the
skin, but at the color of the heart,
and He much prefel'!! a white_
hearted black mun to a blnck­hearted
white man. How is your

Two large silver tablets with

We wonder if these vacancies

Also, we cannot figure out
why these names were selected

for this selection was that these

The question has often been
asked, "Why does Italy produce
much mon than her proportion of
world famous singers!" Some
have attributed this condition to
the climate, some to diet, some to
the open~lIi r life. We think it is
the Italian language whiCh is mu­sic
in itself. The Italian Isnguage
plus the love of Italians for beauty
in natUr(l and a rt and the Italian

In My End Is My Beginning
By Mauri.,e Barine
The title of Maurice Baring'.
lateat book is extraordinarily sig­nificant.
"In My End Is My Be­ginning,"
is not a pa!l8ing glimpse
of the physical distre.'!!! attending
the life of Mary Stuart, a distreu
which was infinitely greater in
terms of mental anguish; it is an
undel'$tanding portrayal of t he
characters most concerned in her
life. An amazing wealth of de·
tail is woven so skillfully into tho
intricate pattern 0{ her life thllt
each character seems essential to
the whole and the result is a
series of sc:ene" so vivid that the
reader lives therein. Some shrink
from reading the four stories for,
moving tale that it is, it contains
much of disappointment and Bor·
row; but the interest is still broad
and human. A tragedy is in the
making. Numberle!18 trying, tell~
ing circumstances develop, but
throughout it aU Mary, the mag­net,
although her charitable mind
Dnd tender heart do not always
correctly intl!l"pret situations,
soothes and attract!!.
Maurice Baring has felt very
strongly the plight of Mary
Stuart. He has undenstood 10
well how unbearable conditions
were for her that he shrinks from
disclosing promisc:uously the ex­periences
of her sensitive mind.
Likewise, it would appear that in
writing this book he has Icorned
much of the dramatic quality of
situations in which Mary was in­volved;
as a crusader might 1IC0rn
the t hrms in exploration which is
undertaken in II great cause, lest
the reader ~ay to himself, " It was
not rea11y as bad as thllt; this is
only a good story."
However, the fact!! and deeds
ot the interesting life ot the
Queen of Scots are threaded to­gether
by the author with a charm
of narrative and a vensatility of
style that bseinate. It i, a rare
tale, weaving into delightful nar·
rative, the spiritual and the high
ideal, the sweet wholesomeness of
tho simple thing8 of life with the
SOt"TOW lind suffering that are
orton the pllrt of great souls.
The book ends with an account
of lIlary', death and burlal which
reminds us of the words later
written by Lionel Johnson about
her grandson, Charle, I of Eng­land.

"Football Is No More Dangerous Than
Any Other Sport," Says Marchie Schwartz
YARR, COACH OF CENTERS FOR 1932
¥'ortullately we were able to
meet the All_Americall halfback,
Mr. lI1archmont Schwartz, and the
All_American Center, Mr. Thomas
Yarr. Incidentally, Mr. Yarr ad·
mitted that be was soon to marry
Millll Rosemary Killen, of Ch:e.go,
gradulile of Northweltern Uni­vel"$
ily. Before this comCII from
the press the marriage ceremony
will have taken place, and thus
we take thi~ opportUnity to con­grlltulate
II1r. Yarr, lind to wish
him every success and hllppiness.
When asked about plans fOI' h'l
immediate future , Mr. Schwllrh,
was very reticent. He sliid he had
no plan for any position in 1932,
other thlln pursuing hi~ studie3 in
the Nolre Dame College of Lnw,
in whicb he is now a Jun:or. But
the announcement has jUlt been
illllued from Notre Dame that
"Marchie" will be the backfield
coach next year under Hunk An­del"$

Characteristically he would make
no predictions for the 1932 team.
With all the commenh circulating
about the danger of footbnll, we
asked hi! Ollinion . Footbull, ac·
cording to him, is no more dtmger.

on football we refrain from mak­ing
uny commenh, but with n
Hlle-up of Coache ~ including An_
denon, Schwartz, Yarr, Hoffman,
and VoedillCh, we cannol help
thinking, (theres' no law against
that), how rosy everything looks
for the 1932 Notre Dame team.
Now to return to the informa­tion
we received from "Marchie."
After learning that each football
game i, dedicated to a particular
Saint, and e~peeially to the
Ble!l8ed Virgin, the Patrone'. of
Notfe Dame, we imju'red under
whose patronage the 1931 Nolre

the Patrone.'!!! of the Army. What
a pleasant $Urpri3e! The l\[a'd of
Orleans led the French army to
victory but to the world her death
spelled only defeat. Ye3 we grant
that the Ramblers went down to a
bitter defeat at the hand. of the
WesL Point cadets, but they won
a great victory in being able to
face the world with a ~mile, admit
they had lost, praise the:r oppon­enUl,
blame themselve3. and in the
Book of Life they wrote their
names in gold.
Incidentally the two members
of thllt Team who came to Roch.
ester are men who~e names will
live in the history of football.
They are representative Notre
Dame men, and they imllre~sed
everyone with their loyal s pirit,
the;r modesty and their IIbility to
live up to the high idelils which
they imbibed within the portals
of the University.

Schwarb and Mr. Thomas Yarr,
their heroes on the gridiron. Mr.
Jack Chevigny, who recently reo
signed as backfield Coach at Notre

Rockne, impressed the listeners
with his forcefulness, his sincer.
Ity, and his praise of the other
fellow. His appearance stllmped
him u a coach, and somchow his

It was not difficult to p:clure Jack
Chevigny between the halve! of a
